    Yeah that should be enough. You can do it man, take your time and use the correct tools, not hard.

    Right on man, see if you were in Denver I'd say, nah you should have me do it:cool:

    Remember to burp your coolant and check your Trans fluid with it idling after a short drive. Other than that fill your diffs and tcase til it barely trickles out.

    I like the black look? Maybe that's the fast and furious in me but I think it is nice. If I had the time and money to burn, would totally do something like that *shrug*

    I think 6 for gear would be better. I ran 3 in rear and about 1.5 in the front. I still need to do my tcase.
